Lets get REAL Lets get REAL Hi Psalmist,...no smoke n mirrors,...just metaphor, allegory, symbology, mythos, archetypes, figurative language. All language is symbolic. There is that which is conceptual, and that which is beyond concepts. Language is coded information describing and depicting...

Historical or mythical? Historical or mythical? Yes,...Zeke takes a more purely allegorical approach to religious history, myth, metaphors and archetypes.....symbolizing the inner experience of the Spirit within the soul, variously described by different personalities and stories within each...

the word 'fragment' is 'figurative'.......... the word 'fragment' is 'figurative'.......... Still taking things so 'literal' I see. All language is 'relative', and must be understood/interpreted within 'context'. Although 'God' is one, indivisible in essence/nature,....within individual...

Lets try again................. Lets try again................. We covered this already,...here is an older post here, touching on the 'thought-adjuster'. Again,....you're ignorant of what the purpose and function of such is, but could be enlightened here. If you're going to critique the TA...

Priests of the Most High................ Priests of the Most High................ :thumb: Some of the inter-testamental writings (dead sea scrolls, apocrypha, etc.) offer insights into Christian doctrinal developments, so worth some study into. According to the UB Melchizedeks are pretty...

Historical or mere myth? either works............... Historical or mere myth? either works............... Nothing wrong with using the scaffolding, symbols and archetypes to depict, explain and express the inner meanings and values,...as you propose. The UB does accept the actual historical...

The newly illuminated gospel......... The newly illuminated gospel......... The Gospel News proclaimed by Jesus in the UB can be summarized here :) - I see nothing wrong, irrational, spurious or insane about such noble, uplifting inspiring truths relative to man's relationship with God, in...

More meta-tations from freelight....... More meta-tations from freelight....... Curiously Christians cling to the OT and have included it in their 'bible' (just adding the NT onto it), and can only really hold to any of it according to the 'new terms' of this 'new testament' which...

Moving beyond the 'preconception' of 'adding' or 'subtracting' from God's word Moving beyond the 'preconception' of 'adding' or 'subtracting' from God's word Indeed,..there is no 'contest' really,....we read, consider and research the religious texts in question and judge them on their...

Sorry, did you forget the subject of the thread? Sorry, did you forget the subject of the thread? Spare the religious patronizing and apologetics,.....since this thread is about the UB, not the Bible. If you are going to be in this thread, you have to be exposed to and engage the concepts...

dont waste any more time........ dont waste any more time........ I'm not attempting to get you to read the UB ('God' doesn't force anything) neither shame you (that's weird), but did challenge you in reading what Jesus has to say about the scriptures from the UB record. It takes maybe 5...

Your exclusive clinging to a 'book' (some call that 'bibliolatry') is noted, but as proposed to you previously,...take the challenge for the sake of discussion to see where the record of Jesus address disagrees with your unnecessary worship of a collection of writings, written by imperfect men...

Simple challenge for the sake of honest discussion Simple challenge for the sake of honest discussion Another chance to read the record of what Jesus says about the scriptures here. - if you fail to consider this, you really have no stake in any claims in the discussion here, since Jesus own...

That's a belief among some. I've challenged the concept of 'ECT' (eternal conscious torment) here and elsewhere. All one has to do is re-turn to 'God',....repent. This is what is essential. pj

Your ignorance is showing.......... Your ignorance is showing.......... You apparently didn't read the passage on 'Jesus the Man', or you would have seen the important and significant points being shared about Jesus the man....and how his exemplary life is a model for our own, as far as a...

Blood atonement researched again........... Blood atonement researched again........... We've covered the concept of 'blood atonement' here. All points addressed, challenged and researched. Only John mentions Jesus saying anything about eating his flesh or drinking his blood,...and its...

space cadets for Jesus........ space cadets for Jesus........ Yes,....the celestials in their various orders have limited knowledge (are not omniscient like The Father). The UB has lots to share about the dynamics of space and time, one of my favorite subjects to ponder :) See my blog-portal...

Beyond being refuted many times here concerning the UB (on many levels)...if you're actually capable of carrying on a discussion (the purpose of the board here)...then specify what exactly in the video disproves the UB....although most if not all these points have been addressed here in this...
